Manchester United legend and Salford City co-owner Gary Neville made a classy gesture after their clash with Port Vale was a casualty of the adverse weather.
The postponement came around an hour and a half before kick-off with around 1,300 Vale fans making the 100-mile round trip from Stoke-on-Trent.
Due to downpour in the North West, the referee, Carl Boyeson, ruled the Salford pitch was carrying too much water for the game to go ahead.
